ECT Sample Saw

Device Description:

The ECT Sample Saw is designed for very exact cutting of samples for the ECT test with a crush tester. Research work has found-out, that the same sample of 100 mm width cut with a “Billerude” cutter gives a lower value on the crush tester. With the double blade sample saw the values on the same sample gives a higher result. All parameters are the same, but the difference is on the sample preparation (same cardboard, same crush tester, same humidity, but different sample preparation).
The sample saw has a holder for the sample (100 mm +/- 1 mm width) and this sample is hold down with an acrylic block, which is lifted so, that the sample can be put into the sample holder.
There are running 2 diamond high speed cutting blades, which are moving from right side to the left side in the instrument. They cut the sample with a maximum sample height of 22 mm. The sample falls in a sample holder and when the saw blades are back in starting position, the sample can be easily taken out from the sample holder. On the back side there is a connection for a vacuum cleaner, which sucks the saw dust away.

Test Description:

A sample stripe is put into the sample holder. The motor and also the vacuum cleaner is started by pushing a button and the sawblades are moving and cut the sample with exact 25 mm width. The sample falls in a sample holder and can be taken out after cutting. Now the sample stripe is moved into the saw for cutting the next sample. The machine is so constructed, that a change of the saw blades is very easy.
